I call absolute BS. More BS than global warming.
I think they lost a couple of zeros in this article, or else they mistakenly printed "United States" instead of "Cambodia" when they ran the article.
There are currently 94 million Americans out of work.
Stop sending American jobs to China.
Even the lowest welfare payment in the state of MS is more than $60.00/month.
BS! Who believes this crap?
I could not survive more than a week on 2 bucks a day.
these people are throwing around unsupportable Bull Stuff
Its an advertisement for big government.
I don’t believe a word of it.

Back in 1968, I purchased a book HOW TO FEED FOUR FOR $1.00.
Wish I still had it.
Total B.S.
Plus $75,000 in benefits. So $75,002

This is a true statement. Most of us would say we would have trouble understanding how families in the county as rich as ours could live on so little. Especially when it is so clearly false. BS.
No way anyone could live on $2 a day. Not even pre-Obama.

“These families, contrary to what many would expect, are workers, and their slide into poverty is a failure of the labor market and our safety net, as well as their own personal CHOICES.”
Fixed!
I know. I’m mean that way. ;)
I actually have this retarded book.
It’s titled “Nickel and Dimed”
By Barbara Ehrenreich
Please understand that these people are insane.
They have no concept of an “individuals” ability to make their own choices and their ability to improve their life.
It is all built on a false premise of being “trapped” in a capitalist system that is designed to keep them down.
These leftist actually hate individuals. They hate the people that don’t conform to any number of victim groups that they design for them.
It’s elitist.
It’s the type of disrespect that could be destroyed in a minute by someone that wasn’t pre-defined by our communist media as a “Conservative”.
Everything is upside down.
It is literally INSANE.
I never had a an hourly paid job where I was guaranteed to receive the same number of hours forever. As an employer I scheduled my people to projected volume if that dipped so did hours, and if you were a slacker and didn't improve your hours were the first to go.The only job that guaranteed me minimum hours was Salaried and then I ended up making less money because I had to work more than the scheduled hours.
Hmm? Here in the New Orleans area faith community food banks are a pretty big deal as are ‘clothes closets’. I do note that the Latinos seem to use them proportionally more than blacks. Don't know why, perhaps the big role Catholic Charities has in aiding the Latinos.
Was this article written in 1965? I think that's the last time I heard of "stigma" being associated with being on the dole. These days, the infernal govt advertises to increase welfare deadbeats. There's more stigma if you aren't getting your fair share of govt cheese.
Obviously, it’s not possible in our country today to live on $2 a day. therefore, nobody is doing that. Next...
